I don't have a ph.d
|
I'm a simple man but if you ask me
|
About my philosophy
|
All I'd have to tell ya
|
|
Is I know wrong from right
|
It's mostly black and white
|
But it does get grey sometimes
|
That's when I remember
|
|
Daddy said bou when you've got to choose
|
Which road to take all you've got to do is
|
|
CHORUS
|
Make your mama proud
|
Let your mama know
|
You'd be nowhere without her prayers, faith, and hope
|
Make your mama smile
|
And know without a doubt
|
Everything works out
|
When you make your mama proud
|
|
There's a million self-help books
|
Full of clever pop-psych hooks
|
I don't give them a second look
|
You know they just confuse me
|
|
Now Dr. Phil and Dr. Ruth
|
They're okay but to tell the truth
|
I think my daddy's view
|
Is a lot less complicated
|
|
'Cause when you gotta problem, y'all you've gotta face it
|
But you can make this world a better place if you
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
I guess Moses must have run out of tablet
|
Cause he left out the 11th commandment
|
|
Daddy said bou when you've got to choose
|
Which road to take all you've got to do is
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
Yeah you're gonna make your mama proud
|
make your mama proud
|
